Abstract
Climate change wil have far-reaching impacts on crop,livestock and fisheries production,and will
change the prevalence of crop pests. Many of these impacts are already measurable.Climate
impact studies are dominated by those on crop yields despite the limitations of climate-crop modelling,
with very little attention paid to more systems components of cropping,let alone other dimensions of
food security.Given the serious threats to food security,attention should shift to an action-oriented
research agenda,where we see four key challenges:(a)changing the culture of research;(b)deriving
stakeholder-driven portfolios of options for farmers,communities and countries;(c)ensuring that
adaptation actions are relevant to those most vulnerable to climate change;(d)combining adaptation
and mitigation.
